Ken and Brad Kolodner Quartet and Hoot and Holler

March 30 @ 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Event Navigation

The dynamic father-son duo Ken & Brad Kolodner weave together a captivating soundscape on hammered dulcimer, banjo and fiddles pushing the boundaries of the Old-Time tradition into uncharted territory. Regarded as one of the most influential hammered dulcimer players in North America, Baltimore’s Ken Kolodner has joined forces with his son Brad Kolodner, a rising star in the clawhammer banjo world. They perform with a “creative curiosity that lets all listeners know that a passion for traditional music yet thrives in every generation.” They will be joined by bassist Alex Lacquement (Charm City Junction, Bumper Jacksons) who locks everything together with his commanding and tasteful choices and multi-instrumentalist Rachel Eddy (Uncle Earl) who adds a tremendous energy to their infectious Old-Time groove.

Hoot and Holler are the sum of two parts: guitarist Mark Kilianski and fiddler Amy Alvey. Each are songwriters dedicated to honing their craft, both equally influenced by wordsmiths like Gillian Welch and Townes Van Zandt as they are to authentic mountain musicians like Roscoe Holcomb and Ola Belle Reed. After spending the better part of 2016 living in a camper van while playing shows across the country, they now call Asheville, North Carolina their home. Instrument swapping is common during a performance. Sometimes they don two guitars, other times switching to fiddle and banjo, all the while seamlessly blending their vocals as they sing songs infused with the vitality of the landscapes which they have traveled. They will be joined by Brad Kolodner (banjo) and Alex Lacquement (bass) in their set.
